This theatre performance in Kolkata explores the path to carving out personal space

‘Park’ written by Manav Kaul will be staged on October 20

Subhadrika Sen

Manav Kaul’s play Park is all set to be staged in Kolkata by the Last Laugh Productions on October 20 at Padatik Little Theatre from 6:30 pm onwards. It is directed by Neelanjan and stars Mohan Jha, Mannohar Kumar Jha, Rupsa Das, Rahim Pirani and Neelanjan.

The play begins with three individuals trying to get a seat in a park. What might at first seem to be light-hearted quarrelling for a seat, turns out to be way more layered as the narrative progresses—beneath the humour lies an exploration of history, culture, religion, and a symbolic reflection on the struggle to find one’s place in the real world.
